Summary:

The Pine Island Public School District in Minnesota operates three schools: Pine Island Elementary, Pine Island Middle, and Pine Island Secondary. The district as a whole is performing above the state average, ranking 105 out of 446 districts in Minnesota and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Pine Island Elementary appears to be the standout school in the district, consistently ranking in the top 20% of Minnesota elementary schools over the past 3 years and earning a 4-star rating. The school's test scores, particularly in math, are significantly higher than the district and state averages, with over 70% of students proficient or better. In contrast, Pine Island Secondary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from the top 20% of Minnesota high schools to the bottom 50% over the past 3 years, and its test scores, especially in math, are well below the district and state averages.

The student-teacher ratios across the district are relatively high, with Pine Island Secondary having the highest ratio at 16.7. Additionally, the free/reduced lunch rates decrease as students progress through the district, suggesting that higher-income families may be sending their children to the high school rather than the elementary and middle schools. While the district as a whole is performing well, the high school is an area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions to improve academic outcomes.
